This study aims to analyze and evaluate emergency response of local government following 2005 Hurricane Katrina Disaster from Management by Objective and Command & Control perspective, which are both one of the characteristics of Incident Command System. As a case study, We conducted interview for City of New Orleans, LA and Hancock County, MS, and analyzed the framework and contents of Incident Action Plan prepared by each local government in order to clarify how local government managed emergency operations. We conclude that Management by Objective was complementary concept of Command & Control, and self-organzized activities by each Emergency Support Function led to overall control of emergency response.
